The website is currently being reworked for the 12.04.3 release, sorry 
about that...

You shouldn't install the *-static packages yourself, there are for 
internal use when building generic debian packages.
If you need NTK, install libntk0.0-dev instead.

The MIDI channel thing is only for:
1. piano keyboard (feedback and sending notes to plugin)
2. internal controls (volume, dry/wet and balance, mapped to MIDI CCs)
3. changing the current midi-program on SF2 and internal synths.

This needs to be documented somewhere, I know.
I'll add some tooltips in there.

with bug reports and requests.
MAKE SURE TO USE THE "stable" git branch!!
